Cross Price Elasticity Calculator
Before understanding the concept of cross price elasticity of demand we have to understand first the concepts of complementary and substitute goods or products. Complementary products are those products that have used with each other. Without one product other product has no use. These products must be in combination form, without one other is useless or have minimum use. In simple words, both products are dependent on each other. Like Pen and Ink etc. Substitute products are those products that have used instead of one another. Without one product other product is also useable. These products must not be in combination form, without one other have maximum or wide use. In simple words, both products are independent of each
Consumer Surplus Calculator
In this article, we are going to provide a consumer surplus calculator, which will provide results on an automatic basis. Before approaching to consumer surplus calculator let us take an overview of consumer surplus. What is Consumer Surplus: An Overview In economics, the difference between the price that consumers actually pay and the maximum price they're willing to pay is the consumer surplus. You have probably seen curves describing supply (S) and demand (D) as a function of price (P) versus quantity (Q) if you have ever attended an economics lecture. If not, in the market surplus graph below, you can easily understand the notion. As a lower price implies a higher demand for a given article, the demand curve (D) is downward.
Average Variable Cost: Definition, Function, Formula, Calculator
To make significant production decisions, businesses depend on multiple cost functions. In this article, we are going to discuss the average variable cost function, its uses for business decisions. Average Variable Cost Definition The TVC, total variable cost, per unit of output is known as the AVC, average variable cost. It can be found easily when the TVC, total variable cost, is divided by the total output (Q). TVC, total variable cost, is all the costs, such as materials and labor that vary with production. The best way to evaluate that variable cost is that if production increases so the cost increases as well. The AVC would be used by profit-maximizing companies to decide whether to continue their production or shut down it
Price Elasticity of Demand Calculator
The price elasticity of demand calculator measures the impact of price on quantity demanded. For example, if the price of an apple is 3$ and its quantity demanded is 2kg then what will be the impact of price on quantity demanded of apple when the price rise to 4$. The price elasticity of demand tells us about the rate of change in the quantity demanded of any commodity with respect to change in the price of any commodity. In this post, we are introducing our price elasticity of demand calculator where you can just put the value and it will measure the price elasticity and tell you about the kind of elasticity i.e. inelastic, elastic, unitary, etc. Price
Types of Elasticity of Supply
Before we are going to discuss the types of elasticity of supply I recommend you to study elasticity in economics and types of elasticity of demand for clear building of your concept. Supply means the provision of goods by the businesses against their price. In simple words, supply shows the availability of product or quantity supplied in the market against the market prevailing market price. With the change in the price level, the quantity supplied changes. Quantity supplied means the willingness of the supplier to supply a product on any specific price level. Many people confused between the types of elasticity of supply and demand, they thought that measurement of elasticity i.e. Perfectly Elastic, Relatively Elastic, Constant, Relatively Inelastic, and Perfectly Inelastic are the types of elasticity of supply and
Types of Elasticity of Demand
The elasticity of demand measure the responsiveness of quantity demanded due to change in any other variable like price, income, etc. There are three main types of elasticity of demand but some economists considered them as four with the inclusion of advertising elasticity of demand. 4 Types of Elasticity of Demand All the types of elasticity of demand are enlisted hereunder. Price Elasticity of DemandIncome Elasticity of DemandCross Elasticity of DemandAdvertising Elasticity of Demand Now we are going to discuss all types of elasticity of demand in details one by one. Price Elasticity of Demand Price is the main factor which directly affects the demand for any product. Price Elasticity of Demand is considered at first in all types of elasticity of
Elasticity in Economics and Types of Elasticities
Elasticity in Economics In this article, I teach you the concept of elasticity in economics and types of elasticities. Demand and supply tell us the relationship between price and quantity demanded but failed to let us know how much change will occur with a one-unit e.g. 1 USD change in price. The elasticity in economics comes into the ground when demand and supply theories failed to tell us the exact change. The concept of elasticity in economics tells us the responsiveness of quantity demanded due to change in price. Understanding the concept of Elasticity in Economics The elasticity in economics is responsiveness in quantity demanded because of a change in the price level. To understand the concept let take an example that a person has purchased
What is Microeconomics
Definition of Microeconomics Microeconomics gives focus to the small or micro sections of the economy. Further, this branch of economics studied the individual’s (Households, industry, firm, etc.) economic problems and respective decision-making process that how to satisfy their unlimited wants by using the scarce or limited number of resources. To better understand the concept of microeconomics we can define it as the study of fulfilling the unlimited wants or desires or maximizing the gain or benefit of an individual, individual family, individual company, individual industry, and so forth, by using scarce resources. Microeconomic theories study the individuals and their behavior towards attainting maximum gain in an economy but do not study the economy as a whole. Microeconomic theories study issues like consumption,
7 Exceptions to the Law of Demand
So far we have examined the inverse relationship/association between demand and price of a product. The law of demand stated that with the increase in the price of a particular product would reduce the demand for that product and vice versa. In simple words, exceptions to the law of demand refer to conditions where the law of demand is not applicable. In case of exceptions, the demand curve shows an upward slope and referred to as the exceptional demand curve. However, there are a few exceptions to the law of demand: with lower prices, demand also increases and decreases with rising prices. This situation is paradoxical and is considered an exception to the law of demand. In simple terms, the exception to
